Naylor Park and Boat Ramp aerial plan map

Thanks to the Lowndes County Commission and staff, here’s a look
at what they’re planning for the new boat ramp and park on the
Alapaha River just north of US 84.
Below are videos of discussion about these plans
in several recent Commission meetings.
This boat ramp and park is already on the map for the
Alapaha River Water Trail,
and I have thanked the Commission for moving along to get it established;
see below.

The Engineer gave a similar presentation at their
This time Commissioner Demarcus Marshall asked if the park
could be made available for public use before the engineering
was finished.
Tuesday 10 February 2015 Regular Session.
The Engineer indicated concern for safety with high water levels,
since there would be no fence yet to secure the park.
I believe Commissioner Joyce Evans made the motion to approve
the engineering work.

At that same Tuesday meeting
I thanked the Commission on behalf of WWALS
for working on the boat ramp and park.
And I invited them to the WWALS outing at noon this Sunday 15 February 2015 from
the Statenville Boat Ramp to Sasser Landing near Jennings, Florida.
Like them, y’all come, but be sure to bring a personal flotation device and
call the event organizer first so he’ll know you’re coming.
